00:00:00
Let's go.
00:00:01
Episode number 2.
00:00:02
Is that, bro?
00:00:02
Fuel.
00:00:02
We're so heavy.
00:00:03
We're gonna be back, bro.
00:00:05
Let's, let's dig in episode 2.
00:00:07
Right.
00:00:07
So excited about this.
00:00:08
Yeah.
00:00:09
Buddies medicine, baby?
00:00:10
It's been a year.
00:00:11
It's alright.
00:00:11
That
00:00:12
is, bro.
00:00:12
It is.
00:00:17
Been it's been 1.
00:00:18
Well, yeah, bro.
00:00:19
1 1 year of doing this, we have 2.
00:00:21
Oh, okay.
00:00:23
That would be But, yeah, we're gonna dig in man food as medicine today.
00:00:28
Something that I've kinda, like, based my my functional medicine practice on.
00:00:33
You know?
00:00:33
It's it's using food and supplements, obviously, which are derivatives of food.
00:00:38
Right.
00:00:38
Longinal foods as opposed to medicine, right?
00:00:41
I think that's all activities.
00:00:43
If if your body is in a state of, cardiac inflammation, right, it's not because or or
00:00:47
high cholesterol, Yeah.
00:00:51
It's not because your body's deficient in with the pork.
00:00:54
Right?
00:00:54
It's not deficient in a statin drug.
00:00:56
You know, your body is something that's going on functionally that is is causing that you
00:01:01
know, so how do you get to the root?
00:01:02
Obviously, discover the root cause of it, and then how do we use natural names to reset that?
00:01:07
Yeah.
00:01:08
Right.
00:01:08
And as anti limitation.
00:01:09
For sure.
00:01:10
Yeah.
00:01:10
Yeah.
00:01:10
We kind of, to to lower that.
00:01:12
But, yeah, that's what we're gonna get into today, man.
00:01:15
Some of the some of the other things are, you know, what our functional foods, right, which I
00:01:19
love, and and you're obviously a big proponent of that.
00:01:22
That's gonna be kind of building a business around and then you know, some of the different
00:01:27
diets.
00:01:27
Like, what how do we use diets, medicinal.
00:01:30
Right?
00:01:31
People think a diet just, like, starving yourself and and being, like, uncomfortable and
00:01:36
miserable and and working out, it's not in in a diet.
00:01:39
It says, can be like a medicinal strategy or like a, a strategy to achieve some goal.
00:01:45
Yeah.
00:01:45
So when it's weight loss, muscle gains, brain brain function, whatever it might be.
00:01:50
I think that's crucial that you said that too, like, towards a goal and knowing that's not,
00:01:56
like, a long term sustainable thing.
00:01:58
Like, keto, not a not a long term sustainable thing, right?
00:02:01
It would
00:02:01
never meant to be.
00:02:02
But it, but
00:02:03
it can be in the short term.
00:02:04
For sure.
00:02:04
So if that goal is to, you, you know, get your body in the state of ketosis for a period of a
00:02:10
month, 2 months, 3 months.
00:02:11
For or even a day.
00:02:12
Right?
00:02:13
I try to get my body in the process every day, but knowing that's the goal.
00:02:18
Right?
00:02:18
That's the plan, but and then moving past the past that plan, yeah, once you can once you,
00:02:24
you do a lot more long term sustainable tours because whole foods and a well rounded
00:02:30
grouping, where's your protein?
00:02:33
Where's your carbohydrate?
00:02:34
It's not eliminating them all together for the rest of your life.
00:02:37
Right?
00:02:38
That's not a healthy way to go about life.
00:02:39
But then it's a cooperating sustainable, kind of, short term sprints that I think are good.
00:02:44
It's healthy.
00:02:46
Keto diets are good and healthy.
00:02:48
Right?
00:02:48
Atkins diets can be good and healthy, short period of time.
00:02:51
That's right.
00:02:51
Yeah.
00:02:51
Because, you know, again, like, what's the longevity play there?
00:02:54
Right.
00:02:55
Due to carbohydrates.
00:02:56
Right?
00:02:56
It could be zero car or low carb forever.
00:02:59
It's gonna obviously have its own kind of downside.
00:03:02
Right.
00:03:02
Cards and fiber are gonna be able to go back to you a little bit.
00:03:05
So, yeah, man, I think, also, like, the cardboard diet, you haven't done it?
00:03:09
I actually haven't.
00:03:10
No.
00:03:11
Like, I did it, and it
00:03:12
it actually it works well, man.
00:03:13
But, again, it's it's not a a lifestyle.
00:03:16
In my opinion, right, I believe I have opinions on this and people think what they want.
00:03:20
In my opinion, it's It's an intervention that you can use to lower information, right, to get
00:03:26
away from those, some of those reactions that come from, like, the heavy oxalates in certain
00:03:32
certain vegetables, improved, and stuff like that.
00:03:35
As well as for autoimmune disease, it works like acid.
00:03:38
For, you know, reversing that and and help people to, like, re, respond, to the way their
00:03:45
body's attacking itself, right, especially with process piece.
00:03:48
Kinda like we talked about last episode.
00:03:51
Yeah, man, when I That's
00:03:52
to cut you off, but just to explain a little bit more.
00:03:55
Oxylate.
00:03:56
So oxylates are a plant's defense mechanism, right, that basically when you eat them, it and
00:04:02
you'll notice this when you eat sometimes bananas, sometimes even spinach where you'll
00:04:08
have, like, tingling in your mouth a little bit.
00:04:11
That's essentially the plain defense mechanism showing like, hey, don't eat.
00:04:16
Yeah.
00:04:16
Don't eat things.
00:04:16
I don't wanna be eaten.
00:04:18
Yeah.
00:04:18
I don't wanna be eaten.
00:04:19
But at the reality is it's so good for you.
00:04:21
It's but that that's at the detriment of somebody being, like, completely vegan or
00:04:26
vegetarian
00:04:26
Right.
00:04:27
That, like, their oxalate levels are freaking through the roof because they're going there's
00:04:33
not a blend of, you know, blood world.
00:04:35
So it's not bad to eat things and oxalates.
00:04:37
Yeah.
00:04:38
But when you're at when you're getting into the point.
00:04:40
So I didn't mean to cut you off.
00:04:41
I just wanted to explain that for the viewership.
00:04:42
Go over here for me.
00:04:43
Yeah.
00:04:44
Conversation.
00:04:45
Yeah.
00:04:45
And, I mean, the the vegan diet's a big ticket.
00:04:47
Right?
00:04:48
Right.
00:04:48
That was touted as super healthy for so long, and but look at most people who are vegan, are
00:04:52
usually pretty good.
00:04:53
They're, like, I don't kinda gotta choose because they're just, you know, it's so much
00:04:57
heavy fibers and eating eating raw vegetables, like, kind of sucks, right?
00:05:03
Like, it's, like, so hard for your your guts are processing, I guess, that may mean you
00:05:07
gotta be steaming those vegetables or or at least cooking them or making them so that
00:05:11
they're they're that, that tough, like, XO smells and part of that vegetable is broken
00:05:16
down, right, or anybody's gotta break that down You don't really have the enzymes to that.
00:05:21
You know?
00:05:22
And, too,
00:05:24
you know, no good thing.
00:05:24
Not no judgement.
00:05:27
There, but, you're
00:05:28
not batching anyone.
00:05:29
But at the end of the day, it's like, food, a portion of food is meant for dopamine too.
00:05:36
Like, you're supposed to joy food.
00:05:38
I would say at least one time a day, for sure.
00:05:40
And that is, like, therapeutic in nature, right?
00:05:43
There should be, like, an element of gratitude towards food.
00:05:46
It's where you sit down you actually chew it, taste it.
00:05:49
You know, we do that for dinner where phones aside, families sit down, eating dinner,
00:05:54
talking to one another, because, food really opens up as well.
00:05:58
I think there's like a spirit element in that too, is that food actually speaks, for people.
00:06:03
Yeah.
00:06:04
And so and really quality and good food, but the medicine of food fills up your dopamine
00:06:10
triggers.
00:06:11
Right?
00:06:11
So, like, you need to have at least one of those where you're, like, chewing on a piece of
00:06:16
steak.
00:06:17
Pretty good.
00:06:17
Right?
00:06:18
Tune on some, like, hot vegetables that are really cooked really well.
00:06:21
Yeah.
00:06:21
You know, that's part of dopamine where you're just enjoying the process of eating food and
00:06:26
really, like, chewing those and letting those to address.
00:06:28
So yeah.
00:06:29
And I think that is a Right?
00:06:32
Like, having food that's healthy, but enjoy it.
00:06:34
Yeah.
00:06:34
Which, like, just because it's healthy, doesn't mean it's it tastes like that.
00:06:37
Yeah.
00:06:37
We do have probably like spices.
00:06:40
Right?
00:06:40
Yeah.
00:06:40
You can put spices on vegetables and, like, say, obviously, enhance the flavor profile.
00:06:44
It can't be the way that your body's gonna, for sure, absorb it.
00:06:47
As well as spices and herbs are basing the basis of, like, Chinese medicine.
00:06:52
Right?
00:06:52
That has been medicine forever, much longer than you know, the the conventional drugs that
00:06:57
are either distressing.
00:06:58
That's kind of messing around forever.
00:07:00
Ever.
00:07:01
So that's Mine's made much
00:07:02
That's right, man.
00:07:03
That's the cases of it.
00:07:04
Yeah.
00:07:04
Yeah.
00:07:05
You're not too big, you know.
00:07:06
It's my stick.
00:07:07
It's like, you know, fiber.
00:07:08
Yeah.
00:07:09
Doctor Lane was talking about.
00:07:10
I was listening to him the other day.
00:07:11
I'm actually going to a conference.
00:07:13
You should come with me, actually.
00:07:15
I'm going to a conference here, a couple weeks, to hear him speak.
00:07:20
And he's just he man, he he's like, what I love about him scientist, right?
00:07:26
It really, really dives into the science.
00:07:29
Like, what is the evolution?
00:07:30
And for us, it's like food is medicine, but food that serves as an anti inflammatory
00:07:35
medicine.
00:07:36
Right.
00:07:36
And because that's the main thing.
00:07:38
It's like if you're if you're eating stuff that's gonna be inflammatory to the body, then
00:07:43
it's not gonna be medicine.
00:07:44
It's it's gonna be, you know, degrading to the body.
00:07:46
There's not really a whole lot of longevity in that.
00:07:48
Right.
00:07:49
Yeah.
00:07:51
And so then he talks about, that really the key to food as medicine is that level of fiber,
00:08:00
getting fiber.
00:08:00
Like fiber is the really key ingredient behind.
00:08:05
If you can get, yeah, worth 30, 60 grams of fiber in your diet in a day, you know, that
00:08:10
serves as a solid anti inflammatory.
00:08:13
And that's where Chinese medicine, and that's where lion's name.
00:08:17
Like, you don't see too many, like, barrier road ton.
00:08:21
Chinese people are short too, which, like, yeah,
00:08:23
they have easier to have a high degree.
00:08:25
Right?
00:08:25
Yeah.
00:08:26
Way easier than that.
00:08:27
But at the same time,
00:08:28
their VC rates are less than not.
00:08:30
Right?
00:08:30
And when the obesity rates started getting higher, in in countries like China and Japan
00:08:34
because when fast food, like, changed from this country started launching.
00:08:38
Going over there, right?
00:08:39
Figure that.
00:08:40
I didn't.
00:08:40
I didn't.
00:08:40
I didn't.
00:08:40
I didn't.
00:08:40
I didn't.
00:08:42
I didn't.
00:08:43
I didn't.
00:08:43
I didn't.
00:08:43
I didn't.
00:08:47
I didn't.
00:08:50
If you wanna hear your question answered live on the show, submit it to ask at fullfuel.com,
00:08:56
check out the optimizers program where we build maximum improve longevity and get guys freaking
00:09:01
shredded so that they can crush it at life for as long as possible.
00:09:09
Bried foods, everything that's, you know, incorporated into that.
00:09:13
But That
00:09:14
that's why we so heavily invested into specifically like mushrooms, like understanding
00:09:19
mushrooms, in a higher scale, but, like, then lions may end up Chinese medicine.
00:09:24
Like, they've been using that forever, like, for a long time.
00:09:30
And that is then what's cool about mushrooms specifically being utilized as medicine is that
00:09:37
mushrooms actually go after the environment, which a lot of, a lot a lot of, like, fruits
00:09:42
and vegetables do, but mushrooms absorb the environment at which they're in, right, And so
00:09:47
they retain all the nutrients, everything.
00:09:49
So if there's also bad stuff going around, like, it'll absorb that too.
00:09:54
Whatever's in that soil, the mushrooms are growing.
00:09:57
And then there's, like, all these networks
00:10:00
that are formed throughout the Venice bug.
00:10:04
It's sponge.
00:10:04
It's a 100% like this.
00:10:06
It's a growing sponge.
00:10:07
Yeah.
00:10:07
So but if you can get solid mushrooms, which, like, here's a promo that's, you know,
00:10:13
nutritious, but nutraces in there.
00:10:15
But, like, is that is is the, is the getting a mushroom, right, where it had protected
00:10:23
environment?
00:10:23
Where I will.
00:10:24
You know what?
00:10:25
I will.
00:10:25
We oesinate the water.
00:10:27
It's a great problem.
00:10:28
We oesinate the water.
00:10:29
We have a controlled environment.
00:10:31
We have spores.
00:10:32
So we take the spores actually California, we'll bring him over.
00:10:35
We have a mycologist out of Jacksonville State University that, that we then expand our
00:10:40
scores, that we bring him into our control Chilled farm.
00:10:44
It was an ate the water.
00:10:45
And so then we know what environment these things are, like, growing, pulling control
00:10:50
nutrients.
00:10:51
It's all controlled.
00:10:53
And so it's got a high, high level of nutrients and and micro nutrients that are coming fight
00:10:58
over nutrients that are what, then gonna be
00:11:01
food for the body of what we're talking about today.
00:11:03
Like, how
00:11:03
are we utilizing food as medicine?
00:11:05
And all this is you know, somewhat supplementary at the end of the day, because
00:11:10
you can put it in your coffee.
00:11:11
But, like, what are you doing Like, what is that aided fuel that you're putting in and
00:11:15
where food is, you're serving as that anti inflammatory Correct.
00:11:19
Where you're getting proper macro micros that are, like, that are gonna be anti inflammatory
00:11:24
that allow you to thrive.
00:11:25
Right?
00:11:25
Yeah.
00:11:25
And that's that's what it's about.
00:11:27
Like, your human experience on earth should thrive, getting to your root causes of maybe
00:11:32
pain.
00:11:32
But if you don't have pain, like, what is that?
00:11:34
Paging process look like for you because food is gonna be the narrative.
00:11:38
Yeah.
00:11:38
And so it's like, yeah, like, you touched on me and using it as medicine, but if if you're not
00:11:43
in pain, you don't have chronic diseases that you're, a healthy person, right, with, you
00:11:48
know, in this country, that would be beyond healthy compared to me, right, like, to the the
00:11:52
average person isn't playing over the way walking around.
00:11:55
And, essentially, what what what beam over weight does, right, out of those tissues,
00:11:59
talked about it.
00:11:59
Yeah.
00:12:00
First episode or or last one, is, is inflammatory by nature.
00:12:06
Right?
00:12:07
Very inflammatory tissue in your body.
00:12:09
Yeah.
00:12:09
So, basically, when you are overweight, you are walking around and your body is taking this as
00:12:14
3.
00:12:14
Right?
00:12:15
Inflammation is the same whether you cut your leg, whether you get punched in the face, or
00:12:19
you have hard and hard information.
00:12:20
It's the same things that are going on your body by side of doing it.
00:12:23
Right?
00:12:23
So it's gonna send
00:12:24
to good guys, the the healing factors to that area.
00:12:27
You have chronic inflammation from too much a tissue, your body's just walking around in
00:12:31
flames and in pain.
00:12:32
And so essentially, man, like, it's kinda sad.
00:12:35
Like, if you're if you're morbidly obese, it's like you're you're just your body isn't paying
00:12:40
all day long.
00:12:41
Right?
00:12:41
So that that kinda gets back to what you're talking about by quality of like, how do you
00:12:47
start to chip away at that?
00:12:48
And so these interventions, like you said, man, the mushrooms are are can be used short term as
00:12:54
like a as a medicinal protocol, but they can also have a place long term in your diet.
00:12:59
Right?
00:12:59
It doesn't mean that they can every single day.
00:13:01
A couple times a week or, you know, either needed, right, and I think you touched on
00:13:07
information, right, that that we're that's kinda what we're talking about, but I think one
00:13:11
diet that can be a longevity diet Yeah.
00:13:14
The anti medical diet Yeah.
00:13:16
Or the the the deflaying diet.
00:13:18
Anything that's gonna lower nature of the body will just be beneficial for lumpy.
00:13:24
Yeah.
00:13:24
Yeah.
00:13:25
Fido nutrients.
00:13:26
Like, getting your Fido nutrients, that's things were in, obviously, antioxidant levers,
00:13:32
and
00:13:32
avoiding the process, avoiding the refined sugars, the carbs, and all that.
00:13:36
I mean, that's been that that for me, it's
00:13:39
been crazy, like, a huge huge huge difference of,
00:13:43
like, not even nearly, like, looking much sugar is going to be about it.
00:13:47
Yeah.
00:13:47
And then specifically, I looked at, like, in added sugars.
00:13:50
Right?
00:13:50
That's the big thing for me, but,
00:13:52
as far as, like, what's being added to naturally true occurring sugars.
00:13:56
Right?
00:13:56
Like, the those added layers of, like,
00:14:02
sugars, what are you getting in your body, man?
00:14:05
Complete joints everything.
00:14:07
Yeah.
00:14:08
My, I mean, my body is, like, I'm in tune with my body.
00:14:12
Yeah.
00:14:13
It's pretty wild to even think about it.
00:14:14
And most people don't even realize they're walking around with, like, a brain with brain
00:14:17
fog all day because they gotta have, like, operating at this self optimal place.
00:14:21
Like, oh, my joints just after I hear it all the time.
00:14:23
It's just it's just in the morning.
00:14:25
Yeah.
00:14:25
Right.
00:14:26
Yeah.
00:14:26
Man, I I notice that.
00:14:27
Like, if I have, like, I mean, I'll go out or something and have, a desert or something like
00:14:32
that, but my joints hurt the next day.
00:14:34
I'm only thirty one.
00:14:35
It's like, I feel it, and it's because I'm not used that.
00:14:38
I'm normally eating pretty clean to the point that my body doesn't have that.
00:14:41
So I can tell right away.
00:14:43
Yeah.
00:14:43
Well, where most people are at, you know, unfortunately, is that that's their normal.
00:14:47
Yeah.
00:14:47
So they they they're they're pain sensors or they're pain tall it starts to rise.
00:14:53
And so they're not they're starting to tune out that just constant pain and inflammation.
00:14:58
Yeah.
00:14:58
When you put someone like that on hands on a credit for a diet.
00:15:02
After a month, they they are like, what is this?
00:15:05
I feel amazing.
00:15:06
Yeah.
00:15:06
Like, I feel like I've never felt this way before.
00:15:09
Even younger people, man, it's it's like the, right, or like, I can think now.
00:15:15
You know, like, why is my brain working?
00:15:17
Yeah.
00:15:17
It's because it's not being clouded, and it's not being, Like, it's not being bombarded by
00:15:23
all this this misinformation, toxicity, everything.
00:15:26
Yeah, man.
00:15:26
That's huge.
00:15:30
The the actor Mark Island was talking about a few things too, in terms of, like, like, food
00:15:36
being medicine, on a daily basis.
00:15:38
And I know we're gonna tap into this, but, like, getting into the element of flow, how,
00:15:44
like, lack of food actually can be medicine too.
00:15:46
You know what I mean?
00:15:47
Like, yeah.
00:15:48
Like, an overabundance of food, which we, like, wanna just scarf our face were so much in the
00:15:53
habit of, like, I just I need to feel satiated when, like, there's a beautiful thing you know,
00:16:00
allowing yourself to feel hungry.
00:16:01
That's right.
00:16:02
Yeah.
00:16:02
You know what I mean?
00:16:03
It's pretty wild to, like, even think about, but when I started being okay with I don't have
00:16:08
to go in and just, like, smash my face every, like, 20 minutes of it, like, a snack or
00:16:13
something, because I used to do all the time.
00:16:15
Yeah.
00:16:16
Because I created as a habit and cycle, a feedback group.
00:16:20
They're just, like, just when I just got a little bit hungry, I need to take that hunger,
00:16:24
hunger away.
00:16:25
Yeah.
00:16:25
I'm like,
00:16:26
dude, I don't have to
00:16:27
eat that much.
00:16:28
Actually, a lack thereof, gives me actual more longevity.
00:16:32
Yeah.
00:16:33
Yeah.
00:16:33
And almost like your brain can be clear.
00:16:36
Yeah.
00:16:36
I've been passing all morning, and that's fantastic.
00:16:38
My brain is like, operating.
00:16:39
Right?
00:16:40
A lot of time.
00:16:40
Yeah.
00:16:41
But, yeah, because that's that's how I used to be, especially, like, being an athlete in
00:16:44
college.
00:16:44
It was like, alright.
00:16:46
I know in 2 a half to 3 hours, gonna be hungry.
00:16:48
So it's like, I was always, like, preplanning, like, where I was gonna get my next feet.
00:16:51
Yeah.
00:16:51
Right.
00:16:51
It's like,
00:16:52
I've just stacked my backpack and my gym bag with, like, bars and, yeah, serial.
00:16:57
Stuff to have for, like, when that hunger started.
00:17:00
I was like, oh god.
00:17:00
I was like, panic, man.
00:17:01
I was like, I'm gonna be hungry now.
00:17:03
That's okay.
00:17:04
That's okay.
00:17:05
I'm a little
00:17:05
hungry right now.
00:17:06
Yeah.
00:17:06
Absolutely.
00:17:07
I agree too.
00:17:07
It's fine.
00:17:08
Right?
00:17:08
Like, and that's, you know, if we get into, like, the spiritual side of, like, that thing
00:17:12
and what you know, a lot of the, the ways it was used in, like, connecting, right, to the
00:17:17
divine.
00:17:17
So, I mean, you you give that back, man.
00:17:20
Like, you you feel a little longer, like, like, thank god for for providing me with food that I
00:17:25
can do on a regular basis.
00:17:26
Like, this hunger would be like my my way of, you know, giving it up Yeah.
00:17:32
I always need it to be bad and just feel it full.
00:17:35
You know?
00:17:37
It's crazy.
00:17:37
I I did a quick, like, chatgbt thing.
00:17:42
And I was thinking about him, like, oh, nutritious could do, like, a challenge of,
00:17:48
like, you skip the meal.
00:17:50
And then if you had to get through something or, like, break your fast, just, like, but
00:17:54
still push it out a little bit further that you could, you know, hit a nutritious pack, right,
00:17:59
and just get 80 calories in you real quick.
00:18:01
And it would extend that out, but you would for sure be able to skip a meal.
00:18:05
Right?
00:18:05
Yeah.
00:18:06
And, so I was like, how many calories would say every American did that.
00:18:11
And for, what's an average for me?
00:18:13
One day a month, I think
00:18:14
it was.
00:18:14
So, no, the average day for
00:18:17
each American right now is almost 4000 calories, which is insane.
00:18:23
Like, that
00:18:23
is a lot of calories.
00:18:23
Right?
00:18:24
So and, people don't realize this, but, like, a lot of your calories come from, like, four cups
00:18:31
of Starbucks coffee.
00:18:33
You know what I mean?
00:18:33
Yep.
00:18:33
Like, you're getting 6, 700 calories from all those, like, sugar and a coffee.
00:18:37
Yeah.
00:18:37
And so then you're eating for, like, eating.
00:18:40
You don't you don't think I'm not eating.
00:18:41
I'm drinking.
00:18:42
Yeah.
00:18:42
You're you're drinking your calories.
00:18:44
Those don't those still stick on you.
00:18:47
And so it was 14 calories, that, like, if you did that, you would, you would you
00:18:54
would do that
00:18:55
math.
00:18:55
Did you do that math?
00:18:56
I was
00:18:56
like, yeah, there was no, the chat you would do.
00:18:58
Oh, okay.
00:18:59
So I, like, broke it down.
00:19:01
I'm like, like, how like, if somebody gave up, we we would be giving up, like, 14 chile
00:19:06
chilean calories, I broke it down well, actually by Neil then too.
00:19:09
So if, like, somebody did, like, a 2000 calorie diet, it would have been, like, it would have
00:19:13
been, like, 1 meals saved.
00:19:16
You know, how many, like, you know, how many meals that is for, like, for people that maybe
00:19:21
potentially that I would like, dude, that's it.
00:19:23
Why all that as well?
00:19:24
If people took on fasting more and were just more alert with, like, lack of food is
00:19:30
potential medicine too.
00:19:31
Yeah.
00:19:31
Yeah.
00:19:32
And I
00:19:32
know we're gonna we will dive into that in, like, future seasons as far as what fasting
00:19:37
looks like.
00:19:38
Yeah.
00:19:39
But it's, absolutely food.
00:19:41
The narrative food becomes more medicine.
00:19:43
It becomes less of an anti inflammatory rates more dopamine, when you actually have a little
00:19:50
bit more lack thereof.
00:19:50
When you're going into that that
00:19:51
1 or 2 meals a day, and you, like, can be present with those meals.
00:19:59
Man, that's the way I feel like when true food is medicine, like, hopefully, true going into
00:20:04
that with the intention like, I'm eating.
00:20:06
How much more do you enjoy it?
00:20:07
Right?
00:20:08
So you don't have to go fast in the morning and you don't have, like, a nice big, like, hole or
00:20:11
whatever it might be.
00:20:12
It's a healthy, like, to help you lean products to you and then some good, you know,
00:20:16
carbohydrates, yeah, grains or something in, and you're like, it just tastes better.
00:20:20
So Yeah.
00:20:21
And you enjoy
00:20:22
it more.
00:20:23
Yeah.
00:20:23
It's, I I love it.
00:20:25
That that is truly, I feel like.
00:20:27
Not that is like that is food as medicine.
00:20:31
Like, if you had to, like, picture it, that the absolutely food is medicine like that.
00:20:36
Yeah.
00:20:36
And, you know, the the reason, like, most people aren't doing that is because it's not a
00:20:39
narrative of the business model that is, like, exactly spaces.
00:20:44
Right?
00:20:45
Well, he's talked about last week.
00:20:46
Yeah.
00:20:47
It's, like, 2 You have to have breakfast.
00:20:49
You have to wake up with this pop tart.
00:20:50
You have to wake up with the cereal.
00:20:52
It's the the breakfast and most important meal of the day.
00:20:55
That the way the marketing did a
00:20:57
100 hours.
00:20:57
I think everyone thought the doctors were
00:20:58
saying that, no.
00:20:59
That was that was the marketing glitch.
00:21:01
Yeah.
00:21:02
But Yeah.
00:21:03
We can go I could grab a whole lot of that forever, man.
00:21:05
Yeah.
00:21:05
Like I said, a little conspiracy.
00:21:07
The, he I was thinking a Starbucks again.
00:21:10
Like, when you get a soy latte, but you put 4 dumps of, 4 dumps of, vanilla air, caramel
00:21:17
sugar.
00:21:18
It ain't helping you.
00:21:19
And that's liquid just being
00:21:20
straight deposited into your body.
00:21:22
Right?
00:21:22
And pancreas is like, I don't I'm not even in touch with it.
00:21:26
I don't have enough insulin for that.
00:21:27
That's right.
00:21:29
Oh, man.
00:21:30
So, here we go.
00:21:32
We're, I think that's a wrap, for food as medicine.
00:21:35
You got anything else?
00:21:36
You know what I mean?
00:21:37
I think it's, you know, obviously, for anybody listening, who's like, this is new to me or new
00:21:41
knowledge.
00:21:41
Yeah.
00:21:42
Find someone you trust or that that has knowledge in this space that you can work with.
00:21:45
Right?
00:21:46
Like, someone like myself as a functional medicine doctor or folks in nutrition or any
00:21:49
kind of, life life coaches, right, that have knowledge in that realm to be able to help you
00:21:54
kind of, enforce some of these things because most people are probably gonna be like, oh, let
00:21:58
me go buy out.
00:21:59
Go buy a bunch of stuff in there.
00:22:00
So buy a bunch of this stuff and start taking it.
00:22:02
Yeah.
00:22:02
Doesn't necessarily mean that's the right thing.
00:22:04
So yeah.
00:22:05
Yeah.
00:22:05
You know, do do some research do some reading.
00:22:07
We'll I think we should link some, resources too, yeah, into our into our notes.
00:22:11
We'll do that for sure that people can look up.
00:22:13
Yeah.
00:22:13
No doubt.
00:22:14
We'll, put those in there.
00:22:15
I think so doctor Lessey is my doctor, my functional.
00:22:18
I do everything proactively through him.
00:22:21
Something that I do as far as size, which, again, we're gonna build on to, but I wanna be
00:22:26
proactive in terms of, like, not reactive to injuries.
00:22:30
But, so I try to take care of my body about it straightened out, do those things.
00:22:34
So if you're in the Tampa Bay region and, you need a functional wellness doctor, you need to
00:22:39
go to along this.
00:22:41
I'll take care of you, like he does me.
00:22:44
He goes above and beyond.
00:22:45
So, that's what we got for the day.
00:22:47
Appreciate it, man.
00:22:48
And, Blake, I think we got a couple to the audience, what what are these questions?
00:22:52
Oh, man.
00:22:52
Yeah.
00:22:52
I mean, that's the That's a big one.
00:22:59
That's a
00:23:00
A lot.
00:23:00
Right.
00:23:00
Like, if you wanna get into it, that, right, like, essentially, it is you die.
00:23:05
Right?
00:23:05
Like, if you're trying to get everything, forever, you can't you can't support that.
00:23:08
Whenever ever.
00:23:09
Right?
00:23:09
So it's gonna look like the
00:23:12
first, like, pain, you know, brain fog,
00:23:13
then it becomes chronic disease.
00:23:18
Think of your body like a like a bucket, you know, and every everything that comes into it
00:23:23
that is, is stressful and is feeling that it.
00:23:27
Right?
00:23:27
And eventually that bucket overflows, that's just insane.
00:23:30
Right?
00:23:31
So, like, yeah, you can get away with Sugar and the kids.
00:23:33
You can get away to to a point that that bucket gets to the top and then your body becomes you
00:23:39
become that medic, right, where you become insulin resistant because there's just a
00:23:42
threshold that our body's tolerate, which, by
00:23:46
the way, if somebody is already there, that's reversible if you know the root cause.
00:23:49
Yeah.
00:23:50
That's right.
00:23:50
Yeah.
00:23:51
Yeah.
00:23:51
All that stuff is good.
00:23:52
Right?
00:23:53
Yeah.
00:23:53
Yeah.
00:23:53
Yeah.
00:23:53
I mean That's what's cool about, like, quality and understanding the anti inflammatories.
00:23:57
When you get to that point, doctors, some doctors will tell you, when gonna put you on
00:24:01
more drugs.
00:24:02
No.
00:24:02
There there's a way out of that.
00:24:03
Right?
00:24:04
You can get to the root cause.
00:24:05
That's right.
00:24:05
Yep.
00:24:06
Yep.
00:24:06
So, but, yeah, again, yeah, disease that's where disease comes from.
00:24:10
So, like, the more inflammatories you have in the body, you're gonna get disease.
00:24:13
Disease eventually leads to death.
00:24:15
So What's the point of life, though, if you can't experience it through, your thriving
00:24:21
mechanisms?
00:24:22
And so focusing on the anti inflammatory where you are able to thrive Yeah.
00:24:26
That's all these pieces built in, but food is that is that early fundamental base, to create
00:24:34
to create longevity.
00:24:35
And, you know, the top 4 or 5 killers in this country are all lifestyle preventable diseases,
00:24:40
heart disease, cancer, diabetes, use, and autoimmune.
00:24:45
Right?
00:24:45
Those those things, like and I don't know if that's the order, but probably not the order,
00:24:49
but who cares.
00:24:50
Those things are all related to what we put to our body.
00:24:53
Yeah.
00:24:54
We have our life, right, stretch levels, all that stuff.
00:24:56
So, yeah, everything can be reversed, man.
00:24:58
Yeah.
00:24:58
Absolutely.
00:25:00
Good question.
00:25:09
Yeah.
00:25:09
I mean, that's a great question.
00:25:11
I like that because it's related to our product.
00:25:14
It's an anti inflammatory.
00:25:15
So what we do is we focus on the gut.
00:25:17
The first thing that we look at anything is that, you know, what is, what is the
00:25:22
performance of your gut?
00:25:23
Because that's gonna show the narrative and the longevity of everything else in in your body.
00:25:27
You gotta look at your gut first.
00:25:29
And so, fiber is a really big thing.
00:25:32
And then you have some micronutrients that you're gonna be incorporating into that.
00:25:36
But as we explained in lion's name, there's a vagus nerve that is directly correlated from
00:25:42
your gut to your brain.
00:25:43
So it's that.
00:25:44
Alright.
00:25:44
And we'll talk about that because I think we have some that, and we'll throw these in
00:25:48
shownings, but we'll we'll we'll drag down to that a little bit further.
00:25:51
But the big piece in, what I love about lines made it as that it has that gut brain access
00:25:58
point, that creates an anti inflammatory for the brain that gives you more neurology focus.
00:26:05
And the reason why you need an anti inflammatory for the brain and really have,
00:26:09
like, a there's a level of immunity built into that.
00:26:13
Is that, mindset is a crucial, crucial, crucial, filtering.
00:26:16
And if you aren't making decisions properly and you don't have that direct, you know, gut brain
00:26:22
access point, that is clear that you're probably gonna be making sloppy decisions.
00:26:25
Very reactive.
00:26:25
Very reactive, like, Right?
00:26:32
And so, that's what I love about Lions Maine is kind of behind the nutritious brand.
00:26:36
It definitely is behind the nutritious brand, is like, what decisions are you making to
00:26:41
create and while you make your human experience live.
00:26:44
Yeah.
00:26:45
And so that's why
00:26:46
we just love the lines.
00:26:47
That's awesome.
00:26:50
Yeah.
00:26:50
I don't have anything
00:26:51
to add to that.
00:26:52
So yeah.
00:26:53
My man.
00:26:54
I'm so different too in the books.
00:26:56
Thank you, Blake, for those questions that whoever drag in from the audience there.
00:27:00
Yeah.
